Vegan Apple Broccoli Salad
Vegan Apple Broccoli Salad has everybody's favourite fruits and vegetables. You throw everything into a bowl then put into the somewhat sweet and tangy dressing. So healthy and delicious!
Ingredients
For the Salad
- 3 apples of your choice diced right before you add them to the salad, I used Gala
- ¼ cup onion red diced
- 4 cups broccoli cut up and shredded about 2 medium heads
- ½ cup sunflower seeds shelled
- ½ cup raisins
For the Dressing
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp maple syrup you could use up to 2 tbsp
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the Salad
- Wash broccoli under water. Cut the florets in the stalks and place the stalks apart and then cut the florets into very tiny pieces.
- Cut the outer skin from the stems to get to the down tender inside. Discard the outer peelings. Cut the tender inside stems to matchsticks. Or in case you've got a mandolin that will work well also.
- In case your food-processor has an attachment which will cut the stems to long strips (not grated) then would work too. Scissors work also.
- Add to the Big bowl along with the florets and then add the red onion, apples, sunflower seeds and raisins.
To make the Dressing
- In a medium-bowl whisk together all the dressing ingredients.
- Then add the dressing to the salad and toss and chill till ready to serve.
